Do you trust me?

Ye Ling's words startled Ye Jintang for a moment, but she quickly recovered and smiled as she met Ye Ling's gaze, nodding in response, "Of course."

"But Your Highness's request does not contradict my desire to go to the Hall of Resurrection."

She understood that Ye Ling's actions stemmed from concern for her safety, and that he even wanted to protect her as he had protected Ye He.

However, given his status as Regent Ye Ling, achieving these things would indeed be effortless.

But that wasn't the result she wanted.

Moreover, Ye Ling herself was also poisoned by the Soul-Devouring Powder. This matter is not just a simple matter of the Resurrection Hall prescribing the wrong prescription and the moldy medicinal materials.

Behind this lies something related to malevolent energy, but unfortunately, once the Soul-Devouring Powder comes into contact with malevolent energy, the situation will only become more serious.

The term "soul devourer" is never as simple as it sounds. Once the poison takes full effect, it can truly turn a person into a walking corpse.

When that time comes, what should she do? She had promised Ye Ling that she would cure him, so she had to minimize all risks, not even the slightest bit.

In response, Ye Jintang said to Ye Ling again, "Your Highness, it is precisely because I trust you that I must resolve this matter personally."

Ye Ling gazed at her, and after a long silence, sighed softly, "I knew it would end like this."

"Ye Jintang, I will not stop you from doing whatever you want, but you should always put your own safety first. You don't need to worry about the token I gave you, or the one the Emperor gave you."

Ye Ling paused, her expression turning worried, "Don't forget our cooperation."

"good."

Ye Jintang replied.

The carriage stopped in the alley behind Huishengtang. Ye Ling wanted to go in with Ye Jintang, but Ye Jintang stopped her.

"Your Highness, I can handle the rest myself. I imagine you have other things to attend to, don't you?"

Ye Jintang asked.

Faced with the rejection, Ye Ling ultimately said nothing, "I will watch you leave."

Ye Jintang wanted to say something, but seeing that Ye Ling had already conceded, she could only nod.

Even after Ye Jintang's figure disappeared from everyone's sight, Ye Ling remained standing in the same spot, her gaze fixed in a certain direction.

Leng Feng whispered a reminder, "Master, Miss Ye has already left."

Ye Ling glanced at Leng Feng indifferently, and became increasingly worried as she thought about the results of the investigation.

"Some things still dragged her into it."

"Your Highness, this Miss Ye is currently the mistress of the Marquis's mansion, if..."

Before Leng Feng could finish speaking, he felt a cold gaze.

"Your subordinate misspoke."

Leng Feng quickly lowered his head and apologized to Ye Ling.

Ye Ling then withdrew her gaze, "She is now, but she won't be for long."

"Given her personality, how could she possibly be interested in those people from the Marquis's mansion?"

Ye Ling lowered her eyes, realizing that she only had a working relationship with her.

Even so, he was already content.

Meanwhile, Ye Jintang had already entered the house from the backyard, but just as she was about to step inside, she sensed something unusual.

She has set up traps in some places along the way to the inner quarters, and the only thing left for Green Lotus and Zhou Zheng to do is figure out how to avoid them.

The people around Huisheng Hall were unaware of this, but she noticed that the mechanisms had been tampered with, which was quite interesting.

She even sensed a hint of malevolent energy in the surroundings, indicating that some people were already impatient.

As soon as Ye Jintang entered the house, she heard Da Bai barking.

Big White rushed up to Ye Jintang and barked.

"Woman, you're finally back. I thought you weren't planning on coming back like the others."

Big White wagged its tail happily when it saw Ye Jintang.

"The other person, the one who's always been by your side, I think her name is Green Lotus?"

Big White kept barking, looking very confused.

"She's fine."

Ye Jintang answered, but Da Bai became even more excited upon hearing her reply, asking one question after another.

Seeing that Ye Jintang didn't pay any attention to it, it was about to bark again when...

Ye Jintang warned coldly, "If you don't quiet down, believe me, I'll throw you out!"

Big White was so frightened that it dared not speak and lay on the ground howling softly.

Seeing that it had finally quieted down, Ye Jintang stopped paying attention to Da Bai and then entered the space.

Based on her investigation, it can be basically concluded that the closure of Huishengtang was related to Su Xuerou, and that Su Xuerou also relied on the power of the Minister's Mansion.

The reason they didn't touch Su Xuerou earlier was to see if they could find a breakthrough in Ye He's false accusation through her. But now that Ye He has regained consciousness, and she has already obtained the divorce papers, they've changed their minds.

With the Emperor's token in hand, Su Xuerou's continued antics would only be seen as a sign of her incompetence. She could take advantage of the current situation to deal with her!

Woof!

At this moment, Big White's voice came again.

Ye Jintang opened her eyes and saw Da Bai looking around warily. When he saw her looking over, he hurriedly explained.

"Woman, someone is approaching."

Ye Jintang lowered her eyes. She had naturally sensed this. Most importantly, besides the fact that someone was approaching, she also noticed a murderous aura emanating from the area.

The sound came from the alleyway in the back of the house, and at the same time, the mechanism she had set up made a noise.

Ye Jintang sneered, "They've finally arrived."

"Let's go, it's your chance to make a difference."

Ye Jintang glanced at Da Bai and walked towards the alley.

Upon hearing that he could be of use, Da Bai became excited and followed Ye Jintang out of the courtyard.

But in the alley, a person was enveloped in black mist. Because of the presence of the black mist, these mechanisms had little effect on him.

Even when injured by the traps, the man continued forward as if he felt no pain.

"Woman, this person is very strange."

As a beast, Da Bai possesses an exceptionally keen sense of danger. Seeing that the person was still approaching, it almost rushed out, barking wildly at the other party.

An ordinary person would have been frightened by Baymax's actions, but the other party continued to approach.

Big White was about to pounce, but the next second, the black aura surrounding the man enveloped Big White as well.

Big White was trapped there, whimpering continuously.

"Woman, come quickly and save me! I'm about to stop breathing!"

Da Bai pleaded with Ye Jintang for help.

Ye Jintang took out a talisman from his spatial storage, and as he chanted the incantation, spiritual energy entered the talisman.

The next instant, the talisman floated into the air and flew towards Da Bai.

The black energy vanished the moment it touched the talisman, and Da Bai was freed from it.

The first thing he did after escaping was to rush to Ye Jintang's side.

With this woman around, at least we're safe.

"Stay here."

Ye Jintang knew that the black energy and malevolent aura were beyond Da Bai's ability to deal with, so after giving his instructions, he walked forward.
